Pierre-Hugues
Artefact a place on a human scale, a bit hybrid, between a hotel for the service and a guesthouse for its authenticity and friendliness. In this old building from 1814 with 4 bedrooms, we find this hybrid side in the decoration where antique furniture is associated with more contemporary touches to energize the whole. Mix and match of atmosphere, with more vintage rooms on the 1st floor and a more contemporary 2nd floor. Guests are bound to find something that suits them. A bistro room awaits you for the homemade breakfast. The living room invites you to relax with a collection of board games, a library, its fireplace and its old panoramic wallpaper over 200 years old. Finally, the stone courtyard and the garden are ideal for having a drink in any season. Ideally located 10 minutes from the confidential seaside resort of Pléneuf-Val-André and therefore from the Emerald Coast (Erquy, Sables d'Or, Cap Fréhel, etc.) and above all ideally positioned between to the west, the Côtes de Granit Rose and a little further east St Malo and Dinard. Set back inland: the unmissable medieval town of Dinan. In short, an ideal base camp!
